I think it was 4-5 years ago when I first made a thread talking about this possibility. One of these days I'll scroll back through to find my initial post but I'm too lazy for that today :D

I think we can all agree that if a few kinks are ironed out --- a merger would be extremely beneficial for more teams than not. It would still be possible to keep rivalries intact while aligning conference play to a similar playing field enrollment wise.

I'm glad an OVC rep is going. They need to start doing their preliminary talks/research on this. It might take several years to hash out, but it does make sense.

Honestly that looks perfect. And Portsmouth could schedule a team in the upper tier. I like it. Maybe drop south point down they prob wouldnT beat anyone in the lower tier. Move northwest up.

I would switch Coal Grove with SP. But really looks good. Send to OVC and SoC. 😝

Looks pretty good but I just cant get on board with different conferences for each sport. This is not something the OVC does. I do think a combination of school size, typical CB numbers and historical prestige should all factor in.

I say scrap your football set up nd use the basketball one for all sports. Pretty sure gallia academy would jump to the TVC though.
